Comment(by metux):

 meanwhile I've moved some steps further:
 some .h files with macros+inlines in the ./mhl/ subdir
 ("micro helper library").

 for example mhl/memory.h provides things like
 mhl_mem_alloc_u(): alloc on heap, unitialized
 mhl_mem_alloc_z(): alloc on heap, zero'd
 mhl_mem_free(): free from heap
 mhl_stack_alloc(): allocate on stack (uninitialized)

 and mhl/string.h has eg:

 mhl_str_dup(): safe strdup() (NULL->"")
 mhl_str_ndup(): safe strndup()
 mhl_str_concat_1(): cat 1 string onto some base str
 mhl_str_concat_2(): cat 2 strings onto some base str
 ...
